    Default Imperial Russian sword Identification

    Saw this broken sword listed in eBay. Thought it has an exorbitant price tag if I can settle a nice price and this could become an interesting restoration project or wall hanger. I really don't know anything about Imperial Russian swords. I hope the well versed folk of this forum can identify the model and timeframe of the sword. Thanks for reading.

    I don't know if the Russians used it, but it's a German made sword.

    With German unit markings - I can't see a Russian connection.

    Indeed, a Prussian P1889 with a broken blade tip. Early 1900's to WW1 era. Certainly shouldn't be priced "exorbitantly" in that condition. Quite a bit of damage.
